In order for Wexford Condominiums residents to exit safely onto Greenville Street in Anderson, a traffic light has been needed for years, according to Wexford resident Carolyn Dobbins.

"Cars use the area from Reed Road to the traffic light installed at Ingles (supermarket on Greenville Street) as a racetrack," Dobbins wrote to For Your Inquiry.

The exit out of the 220-unit Wexford Drive apartment complex onto Greenville Street, which also is known as S.C. 81 North, has been the sight of two, possibly three wrecks, including a recent fatality, Dobbins said.

"It's a devil to get out onto Greenville Street. … If there had been a light put up, that wouldn't have happened," Dobbins said about the fatality.

Who's responsible?

The South Carolina Department of Transportation is responsible for maintaining state roads such as S.C. 81 North.

Is a fix coming?

Dana Lowery, a traffic operations engineer for Engineering District 3 of the transportation department, said the department has studied the intersection that is a concern for Dobbins the past and will revisit it.

"It has been studied several times actually," Lowery said. "We are going to do another study out there after school starts back (for the 2008-09 academic year)."

The intersection did not meet requirements for a traffic light in the past because of low traffic volume, but it has been two or three years since the site had been looked at last, she said.

A complete study should begin within 90 days, Lowery said, and that study will include a counting of cars during four peak hours.

Know of a traffic signal issue?

A person who sees a place where a traffic signal might be needed or a traffic signal is not responding properly should call the local transportation department district traffic engineer. The District 3 office — which covers Greenville, Anderson, Oconee, Pickens and Spartanburg counties — can be reached at (864) 241-1010.

"All it takes is one phone call, and we'll be happy to look at it," Lowery said.
